BVI Reinforces Regional Commitment with Support for FMD Prevention at the Botswana–Zimbabwe Border

Continuing its drive to support Botswana and the SADC region during the ongoing Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) outbreak, the Botswana Vaccine Institute (BVI) has once again demonstrated its sense of regional responsibility through targeted, impactful action. Following a joint ministerial committee consultation involving local authorities and the Mophato group in Bobonong, Botswana , BVI extended dedicated support to Mophato, recognising their crucial frontline role in halting the cross-border spread of FMD.

In a moment symbolising this partnership, BVI Chief Executive Officer Andrew Madeswi handed over a donation for the Mophato group to the Minister of Presidential Affairs Moeti Mohwasa, further underlining the institute’s commitment to empowering local communities and reinforcing practical support on the ground.

This initiative not only highlights BVI’s provision of fit-for-purpose vaccines and technical expertise, but also reflects its ongoing support to Botswana and multiple SADC countries during this critical period, uniting scientific expertise with local engagement.

The occasion, officiated by Honourable Moeti Mohwasa, Minister of Presidential Affairs, reaffirmed the importance of strong partnership and coordinated action among institutions, community leaders, and local structures.

Together, these collaborative efforts ensure the protection of livestock, strengthen regional resilience, and advance shared prosperity for Botswana and the broader SADC community.

Knowing the signs and symptoms in livestock is the first step in stopping the spread of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD).

We urge farmers and community members across the SADC region to report any suspicious signs immediately to the nearest Veterinary Office/ Relevant Authorities in their respective countries (Botswana: 267 393 4505 / 4510, Toll-Free 0800 600 130, or WhatsApp 267 77 702 971). Early reporting enables rapid response and helps prevent further spread.
